@ coinfrog I think you meant something other than faith. Lol. We'll see when I get it. Like I said the pics are higher resolution for me on the ebay app. |

Very nice example of one of the toughest issues in the series. I was a little sad the reverse wasn't an earlier die state - those are especially rare as the SF mint was way over-using the reverse dies due to poor supply from Philly.
The obverse picture is great, why did he mess up the reverse so bad?

Hard to tell what you are going to get from these photos.

This one paid off looks like a 62 RB to me!   |

Any chance we could see it outside of the plastic?

Tough to tell, I think I see some signs of circulation. I don't like the obverse fields. The coin looks nothing like the first photos. The reverse devices are pretty beat-up. Nonetheless, I pretty good strike for the issue.

Yea it does have some nicks on the reverse. I'll take it out and get some better pics of it in a couple hours.

A little wear but I really like it. It is getting close to 100 years old. It looks very nice.

  @ mamastinky the reverse on this coin is older than the obverse. Very common that year. That's why it looks flattened. I think crazybo taught me that one. Also I see bad Thad pointed that out. The holder was kinda dirty, looks better without. Thanks guys I've got some more nice varieties coming! Edited by Willburton

That's more like I expected it to look. Looking at the O in ONE, typical soft fill of the die. Denver increased the distance to help the dies last longer. This made the shoulder look very flat. The color would probably be rejected by most including TPG's.....but that's just how these look in MS with some red. I'm flipping back over to MS. MS-62RB Edited by BadThad

Scotty sold me this AU example, it's about the best one I've ever run across to buy. Finding these with red and no $500+ price tag is tough.   Lincoln Cent Lover!VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/
